Folding iakos (crossbeam) hinges

I worked together with a machinist friend of mine to design this hinge for a folding iakos conversion. Obviously the design originated with Gary Dierking's as seen on his Va'a Motu. Thought we'd beef it up a bit and make it a complete box construction. Not sure when they'll be ready, but I'm quite excited to see the real thing and get it installed on Shan Skailyn!

      Hey Jon, I just mentioned your question to my friend who made them. He's happy to produce more. I just messaged you with contact info.
